Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 10 oz marshmallows (about 40 large marshmallows or 4 cups mini marshmallows)
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant banana pudding mix
  • 1 cup vanilla wafers, crushed

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pan: Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt marshmallows and butter: In a large pot over low heat, add the butter and marshmallows. Stir continuously until the mixture is completely melted and smooth, ensuring it does not burn.
  3. Add banana pudding mix: Remove the pot from the heat and quickly stir in the instant banana pudding mix until fully combined with the marshmallow mixture.
  4. Mix in cereal and vanilla wafers: Fold in the Rice Krispies cereal and crushed vanilla wafers gently but thoroughly to coat all pieces evenly with the marshmallow mixture.
  5. Press into pan: Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Using a buttered spatula or wax paper, press the mixture down firmly and evenly to set.
  6. Cool and serve: Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes or until firm. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes

  • Use fresh marshmallows for best melting results; mini marshmallows work well.
  • Pressing firmly ensures the treats hold together without crumbling.
  • You can swap vanilla wafers with other cookies for different textures and flavors.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • For extra banana flavor, add a few sliced fresh bananas on top after setting but consume immediately to avoid sogginess.
